"I think Zach's biggest strength is his ability to shoot the basketball," Sprinkle said. "He has great size for a high school guard. He's going to continue to grow and get stronger. The one thing he can really do is score the basketball and shoot it from deep. It's something essential for how I want to play. I want our team to stretch the floor.

"He can do some other things well too. He can put the ball on the floor, make great decisions and really pass it. He played multiple positions for his high school team, so he's very versatile. I think the best thing he'll be able to immediately do to impact our program will be to shoot the 3."

Hobbs was an all-region first-team selection three times and broke the school's career record for 3-pointers with 215. He scored 35 points in a game his senior year and in his final contest had 19 points and 10 rebounds in a state tournament game.

The news comes as MSU also confirmed reports that senior guard Russell Daniels and sophomore center Max Schuecker are transferring.
